“Bleed” is the third track off of Meshuggah’s 2008 album Obzen. Technically I believe it is a single off the album but I’m not quite sure. I do know that the song kicks major butt and that they do in fact have a music video for it. So going …

Overview —“ Sweet Children, Green Day’s third EP, is surprisingly what I would consider their worst release yet. I figured that since it was released later than either of their first EPs, 1,000 Hours or Slappy, the songwriting would’ve improved and everything like that but this wasn’t the case …
